I just cannot believe that my little man is six months old. Wow. Time has just flown. I think this time around things have been so different. With Elijah I was so excited for him to do things. I couldn't wait until he could smile, laugh, sit up, crawl, etc. With the twins, everything was just so blurry. Now, I know that Oliver will do things at his own pace and I don't want to rush things. I just want to take things one at a time.
Look at this cute little face.
Such a handsome little man.
So what is he doing at six months? GROWING. We are set to go to his six month appointment next week, so I am not sure as to how much he weighs for sure, but I can tell you he is outgrowing his 9 month clothes. Especially the sleepers. He is just so long...and he has got these wonderful chubby thighs! I just love to squeeze them!
We have been feeding him solids for awhile, but I can honestly say he is not very thrilled. Noah and Jonah were not too thrilled of them at this time either so I kept delaying until about 8 months when they just really took off and pretty much just started eating what we did. Oliver does like squash, carrots and prunes. So far he has had peas, green beans, carrots, squash, applesauce, plums, prunes and bananas in addition to his rice and oatmeal. He seems to like applesauce the least. He definitely is not fond of cold food, even cold applesauce. Hopefully things will pick up soon. The other boys are great eaters so I would hate to get a picky eater on the last baby!
Oliver is starting to sit for a very brief moment by himself. He has found his feet and loves to play with them and his hands. He LOVES to talk, especially at 3am. He also has become grabby, grabby, grabby. Just the other day he knocked over a bowl of his cereal and prunes because he grabbed for it when we weren't expecting it.
He is still working on getting his teeth in so he loves his Sophie the Giraffe. He just goes to town chewing on the rubber. He also loves to play with Daddy. He's his favorite. He has some great big brothers who are amazing at playing with him as well. Even the dog likes to be around him. He is just loved by our family so much.
